How Jaecoo J6 Fulfills Nepal’s Automotive Needs

The growing EV market in Nepal needs something unique and stronger, something built for the Nepalese people for the Nepalese road, and we think the Jaecoo J6 just fills the space perfectly. 

The unpaved roads, rugged terrains, and trails are no sweat for the off-roader, Jaecoo J6. Its dimensions of 4406 x 1910 x 1715 mm and 200 mm ground clearance will ensure a smooth, stable, and easy drive. Also, the Jaecoo J6 produces a power of 183.5 PS from a 135 kW OMSM motor with a peak torque of 220 Nm, giving a good performance on uphill rides and in bumpy roads. It has a maximum range of 400 km per charge, which makes it an ideal choice for inter-city drives. And for your information, it only takes 30 minutes to charge 30% to 80% via a DC fast charger.

Since the Nepalese government has been giving emphasis to electric mobility, the Jaecoo J6 agrees well with the movement of the Nepalese government toward eco-friendly transportation. Advanced safety features include Level 2 ADAS, Vehicle Stability Control, and a 360-degree camera that makes drivers confident even on challenging mountainous roads.

Reasons to Consider Buying Jaecoo J6

Performance Metrics

The 135 kW motor in Jaecoo J6 balances power with efficiency, good enough for daily running and long drives. It has a maximum speed of 150 km/h and a smooth automatic transmission, so driving will always be smooth as butter.

Technical Advantages

L2 ADAS, airbags, ABS, and a 360-degree camera are just present in plenty within the Jaecoo J6 for the safety of the occupants. Further, the tubeless tires, 245/45R19, also make it dependable on longer routes. The 65.69 kWh battery will cover the needs of both city drivers and adventure enthusiasts.

Environment Friendly

The all-electric drivetrain of the Jaecoo J6 means reduced greenhouse gas emissions, hence helping the environment in Nepal with its conservation goals. So, when buying this vehicle, it means being part of saving the environment.

Reasons to Avoid Jaecoo J6

Potential Drawbacks

The base price of around NPR 69,99,000 might make the Jaecoo J6 a less appealing option for economy-class buyers. Also, the 264-liter storage capacity sounds a bit small when one needs to store a lot of luggage for trips as the car is marketed as an off-roader.

Regarding Price

The rates at which EVs depreciate are not yet certain, which may affect resale value.

High insurance premiums for a premium electric SUV like the Jaecoo J6 are also another concern. 

Challenges in Maintenance

The Jaecoo J6 was designed with reliability in mind, but the unavailability of specialized repair services and parts in Nepal might create some nuisances, especially for buyers living out of urban areas.

Market Competition

Jaecoo J6 is the first-ever all-electric car that goes off-road and we don’t think it’ll be fair to compare other regular or crossover EVs with an off-roader. Being the first-ever vehicle in such a unique section, there are no other EVs that offer the same performance as the Jaecoo J6. Most of the EVs in Nepal are focused on Urban Driving.

However, if you are considering the performance and capability of the vehicle rather than focusing on it being electric, there are some worthy alternatives in the market. Here’s the list for some ICE alternatives for Jaecoo J6:

• Mahindra XUV 3X0

• Hyundai Creta

• Honda Elevate
